I'm Of The Opinion That Martin Always Found Jon Attractive, But Didn't Develop A Full Crush Until After

On one hand, I think the Arthur Lester hate is so fucking valid. We’ve seen what he’s done in the past, the pain he’s put people through, the decisions he has made. *He* knows how horrible he was, and is. But I’m so curious how much people think he should suffer to make up for it. This man has been to hell and back and gone through things that would make anyone snap, and he just keeps going — to say that Arthur hasn’t suffered enough for his mistakes is an interesting thought. Even he hasn’t forgiven himself fully, and I don’t think he ever will. I guess I can’t really get on the “I hate Arthur Lester as a character” train like I see a lot of people doing — Has he fucked up incredibly? Fuck yeah he has. Is he irredeemable? I don’t think so- and I think that’s a very Malevolent message - no one is irredeemable or undeserving of forgiveness.

This is a lot of nonsensical rambling I’m not too sure what the point I’m trying to make is other than I get a little tired of the constant “Arthur Lester is a shit protagonist” discourse. He’s not MEANT to be perfect, or even someone you need to root for 100% of the time, if you want that in a protagonist I’m sure you can go somewhere else rather than complaining about him every episode 😭

This is how s1 Jonathan Sims treats Martin

me when the character has a uniquely fucked mindset. me when the character's fundamental views of how the world works lead to them being hurt and/or hurting others and not seeing the problem with this. me when the character is a little freak who does weird shit because their beliefs, inspired entirely by their environment, are fuckeddddd

Egg-volent

additionally,

I dunno what this is tbh
